Lakers Company produces two products. The following information is available: Product X Product Y Selling price per unit $46 $36
never [62]

Answer:

A) Contribution margin : Product X: $8; Product Y: $12

B)The expected net income: $18,000

C) Break-even point in units for each product is Product X 19,500 units, Product Y 6,500 units.

D) Break-even point in units for each product is Product X 14,625 units, Product Y 9,750 units.

Explanation:

A) Contribution margin for each product:

Product X = Selling price of X - Variable cost of X = 46 - 38 = $8

Product Y = Selling price of Y - Variable cost of Y = 36 - 24 = $12

B) The expected net income:

Expected net income = Contribution margin of product X x Units of Product X sold + Contribution margin of product Y x Units of Product Y sold  - Fixed cost = 8 x 21,000 + 12 x 7,000 - 234,000 = $18,000

C) The break-even point in units for each product assuming the sales mix is 3 units of Product X for every 1 unit of Product Y:

Denote a is the number of Y BEP (in units) => 3a is the number of X in BEP (in units)

We have 3a x 8 + a x 12 = 234,000 <=> 36a = 234,000 <=> a = $6,500 <=> 3a = 19,500

Thus,  break-even point in units for each product is Product X 19,500 units, Product Y 6,500 units.

D) The break-even point in units for each product assuming the sales mix is 3 units of Product X for every 2 units of Product Y:

Denote b is the number of Y BEP (in units) => 3b/2 is the number of X in BEP (in units)

We have 3b/2 x 8 + b x 12 = 234,000 <=> 24b = 234,000 <=> b = $9,750 <=> 3b/2 = 14,625

Thus,  break-even point in units for each product is Product X 14,625 units, Product Y 9,750 units.

Your boss has asked you to implement a non-disruptive and incremental approach to ensure business process excellence. What kind
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

I would propose a business process improvement (BPI) where management will analyze business procedures and try to determine which ones can be improved and how they should be improved. The advantage of using BPI is that it focuses on organizing work around business processes and not individual tasks which makes it non-disruptive, and it is also incremental in nature.

hammer [34]

Answer:

D. The marginal cost of light is zero, and by convention zero-priced goods and services are excluded from GDP

Explanation:

Only things that have a monetary cost are included in GDP. Things that do not cost "anything" in monetary terms are not included, and this is a major shortcoming of GDP.

From an ecological economics standpoint, things like sunlight, air, and water are often not valued and included in GDP. This is the same case as in the question, because the marginal cost of light is zero, then, it is not included in GDP.
